MedPsych Integrated - Cary, located at 1110 SE Cary Pkwy #207, Cary, NC 27518, is dedicated to providing specialized mental health care and innovative treatment options within the community. Our practice focuses on delivering high-quality care tailored to individual needs, with a particular emphasis on evidence-based treatments like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).
What is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure used to treat certain forms of depression when traditional treatments like medication or therapy have not been fully effective. At MedPsych Integrated - Cary, we utilize TMS therapy as a safe and effective alternative. This treatment uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex, an area often underactive in individuals experiencing depression. The goal is to help restore normal functioning in these areas, leading to improved mood and overall well-being.
How Does TMS Work at MedPsych Integrated - Cary?
During a typical TMS session at our Cary location, you will be comfortably seated in a reclining chair. The TMS device generates a magnetic coil that is placed against your head. This coil produces a focused magnetic field that gently stimulates specific areas of your brain without requiring any surgery or anesthesia. You will likely hear a clicking sound and feel a tapping sensation on your head during the procedure. Each session is generally well-tolerated and lasts about 20-40 minutes. The treatment plan is developed collaboratively with you, based on your specific condition and treatment goals.
Benefits of Choosing TMS at MedPsych Integrated - Cary
Choosing TMS therapy at our Cary practice means accessing a treatment that is FDA-approved and offers a drug-free option for managing depression. Unlike some other treatments, TMS does not require sedation, allowing you to drive yourself home after your session. The side effects are typically mild and temporary, often including headache or scalp discomfort during the procedure, which our team is equipped to manage. We are committed to providing a supportive and understanding environment throughout your TMS journey.
